Coaches Every season we look for a few good volunteers to join our coach and referee staff. If you are interested in coaching or refereeing, look at these information pages and then contact Joel to sign up.

LYSA strives to create a soccer experience that applauds all players as stars. We require the best behavior of everyone involved with LYSA including all adults and players. From parents to coaches to referees to our youngest players, we want everyone to have a Safe, Fair and Fun experience.

SAFE – While there is risk in all sports, LYSA believes that you should not have to worry about outside influences making the sport more hazardous than it is naturally. ALL LYSA coaches, officials, team managers, and any volunteer who has direct contact with your child is required to complete a thorough back-ground check and receive training within their respective position.

FAIR – To insure that games are played in a fair manner, games are officiated by referees trained and certified with a USSF approved program. Teams are balanced for skill and games are played with a no slaughter rule.

FUN – If your child isn't having fun, they will not come back next week let alone next season. All coaches are trained every season to create a fun, inviting environment on the field. If your players are having fun, their ability to learn opens up and wonderful things begin to happen.

Welcome to Lane Youth Soccer Association

We provide a fun, competitive youth soccer experience for ALL children

of Lane County ages 4 to 19. Skill development and a love for the

game is taught within a co-ed, fun environment by trained, volunteer

coaches and referees. We also encourage parent involvement at all

practices and games. All children, regardless of experience, ability

or family income are welcome to register and will have the opportunity to play a minimum of one-half of all games they attend. We do not

require try-outs, never cut players, do encourage everyone to play as

much as possible and offer strong financial assistance for those in need.

We currently offer a fall and a spring out-door season and a week-long summer camp in July.

Most of our teams practice Tuesday/Thursday evenings around 5:30 for about one hour at or near your neighborhood school. Most of the games are Saturday mornings. We never schedule Sunday games.
